User Manual of Report Designer Smart Update

1. Introduct ion

With previous “Cabinet File” download, it is required to improve two problems. Firstly, when it

takes a long time to download, your system seems not to be operated properly. Secondly,

every file should be downloaded through “Cab file”, even in case updating one file. Report

Designer Smart Update has neither problem. But, in Report Designer Smart Update, only each

of updated files is compressed/ transmitted according to a file version in Report Designer OCX

Viewer, and also shows downloading status precisely.

2. Contents

SmartUpdate.dll …………… Download program.

3. Usage

If you input “URL” of “information file which should be downloaded in “InfoFile”, the properties

of a product, it is possible to read information on files and download necessary files only.

1) Creating Information File

Information File is divided into two sections, [Common] section and [File_#] section.

[Common] section has “Overall Information” and [File_#] section has file information on each

file. If necessary, not only “Report Designer OCX viewer file” but also file information

regarding “Tee Chart” and “Tee Chart” can be added.

(1) [Common] Section

① FileNum : The total number of files to be downloaded.

(2) [File_#] Section

# :① Index for each of files starting from 1(consecutive numbers)

② clsid : clsid for files to be registered in Registry. (can be omitted, without “clsid” for a

file.)

③ FilePath : URL address in which each file can be downloaded (supporting “relative

path”)

④ FileVersion : A version of each file(in case of a file not to have version information, it

can be cancelled)


2/3

4. Cautions

① After 1,0,0,9 version, file name supplies not only the full path that includes http but also

relative path that is based on ini file path. In case of using a relative path, the relative

path is start with ‘.’, In case of a file is located at the same location as a basic path, it is

an exception.

② Both of ‘.’and ‘,’ are supplied as separator of a file version, but never use both of them

together.

③ In case own version does not exist (such as *.ini, *.tlb and etc.), it can not come at the

first place of download list.

④ As installation is executed by a list of file index, pay attention to the order of files. In

addition, you had better enter RD OCX Viewer file in the bottom of the list.
